i actually had to remove the turtledeck which is what started the whole rebuild process. the plastic turtledeck wasn't glued on very well and it looked crappy so i started by removing that but then i didn't like the way the controls were done so i'm redoing that, and surprise, the tail is crooked so i'll be working to remove that tonight so i can straighten it out and eventually i'll maybe get to fly it.
the turtledeck is plastic, there's a canopy that mounts ahead of that, and a hatch cover that sits between the cowl and canopy.
thanks,
bart
